My previous career brought me into contact with helicopter operations, providing a mere taste of the dynamic aviation industry. This initial encounter served as the catalyst for my growing interest, propelling me towards pursuing a Private Pilot License for Helicopters (PPLH). Eager to delve deeper and witness the aviation world from within, I embraced the opportunity to join Helicopters Nelson as ground crew. This transition marked more than a career move; it was a deliberate step towards immersing myself in the intricacies of helicopter operations.
